Tom Middleton has unveiled details of his latest mix project, ‘One More Tune’, and it features our track ‘All Over Again’ (Listen to the track here)

The compilation sees Middleton selecting 13 of his favourite end of the night classics and mixing them into one long dance floor farewell. According to Middleton himself, the collection includes some tracks that are:

familiar, others more underground, yet all truly memorable, rich in harmony and emotion. It also provides a fantastic opportunity to re-define a handful of personal favourites.

Finding their way on the comp are bona-fide crowdpleasers such as Joe Smooth’s “Promised Land” and Derrick May’s “Strings Of Life,” with other inclusions coming from Agora Rhythm, Last Rhythm, Shur-i-kan and Middleton himself.

Middleton seems well aware of the potential pitfalls that could befall such a mix,

sequencing a compilation of unsubtle anthems isn’t an easy process, so be prepared for more than a few euphoric hands in the air moments! Most importantly, each track represents an unforgettable club or festival moment during the last two decades.

DJs will also be pleased to hear that the mix will be supplemented by an unmixed CD of Middleton’s remixes and edits for the project.

Well, the first single from the new album is just around the corner

First thing to say is that our new material will be self-released, under the label name “Blu Mar Ten“, (that’s right, we didn’t come up with anything flashier), and will be distributed by the wonderful ST Holdings.

The single will be ‘Close’ and ‘Above Words’, which will be available both on vinyl and for digital download, and also ‘If I Could Tell You’ which will be a digital-only exclusive.

The tracks have seen some great support from right across the d&b spectrum, including Marky, London Elektricity, Ed Rush, D Bridge, Instra:mental, Ink, Marcus Intalex, John B, Logistics, Lomax, Teebee, Utah Jazz, Alley Cat and many more.

All being well, the single will be out around the end of March and will feature brilliant artwork from a new face on the scene. We’ll be revealing an artwork preview, and the man behind it’s magic very soon, so watch this space…
